Leyland PD2 with Weymann body in Baslow village Derbyshire 29April 2021, as it negotiated the bridge over the River Derwent.
On the 29th April 1921 Derbyshire-based Hulleys of Baslow purchased their first bus. Regrettably 100-years later plans to celebrate the event formally have for the time being been dashed by COVID, although the company do intend to organise something in the future.
However, a very last minute decision resulted in their route 170/X70 (Bakewell & Chesterfield), be operated on 29th April 2021 in part by three of their ‘celebrities’, plus duplicates of two locally preserved buses, 225 being one of them.
